  • Where Megachurches Go Wrong
    In this episode of Christianly, we tackle the ongoing debate about church size and structure. While large churches have existed since the early church (think Jerusalem, Spurgeon, and even Antioch), the modern megachurch often follows an attractional model—raising concerns about biblical fidelity, church growth methods, and spiritual maturity. If you enjoyed this episode, consider liking this video and subscribing.

  • The Lost Art of Biblical Preaching
    What makes a preacher truly effective? Is it talent, charisma, or something deeper? In this episode of the Christianly Podcast, Dean Defuria and Tony Wood discuss the lost art of biblical preaching—what it means to preach with authenticity, conviction, and faithfulness to Scripture.  They explore the qualifications of a preacher, the dangers of seeking influence over holiness, and the importance of expository preaching. Why do so many people with social media followings suddenly become “experts” on preaching? How can young preachers develop their own style while staying faithful to the Word? What separates a man of God in the pulpit from someone just working through their notes?If you enjoyed this episode, consider liking this video and subscribing.

  • Is America Experiencing a Spiritual Revival?
    In this episode of Christianly, Tony Wood, Teaching Pastor of Mission Bible Church Costa Mesa, and Dean Defuria, Executive Pastor of Mission Bible, explore what it truly means to live out the Great Commission today. They discuss the challenge of following Christ in a culture that’s increasingly disconnected from its Christian roots, using Francis Schaeffer's "upper story vs. lower story" framework to show how theology impacts every part of life—from society to personal relationships.The conversation covers historical and current issues like Roe v. Wade, postmodernism, and cultural drift, while examining the power of faithful Christian living. Is America still shaped by Christian values? How should believers engage with culture while staying true to the gospel? And what role does the church have in influencing society, even when it faces resistance?If you’ve ever wondered how to apply your faith to daily life, this episode will equip and encourage you to live out your beliefs with clarity and purpose.If you enjoyed this episode, consider liking this video and subscribing.
